Mazda 323f (for six weeks after passing my test)
Mazda mx-5 mk2 - brilliant little car, great way to learn how to drive a rear wheel drive car, gutted when it went back
Toyota mr2 mk3 (hated sooooo much - Least enjoyable/ trustworthy car I've ever driven)
Audi TT MK1 convertible
Audi TT mk1 convertible
Mercedes SLK (slab sided cow, didn't last long, was glad when it went)
Audi TTS convertible (traded in for the rs4 in order to accommodate a child seat)
Audi rs4 b7 (current, likely to keep for years)
Ferrari 360 modena f1 - brilliant fun

I didn't learn to drive until I was eligible for work's car scheme and the way it used to work meant that if someone left their car sat in a garage in Milton keynes, so if you weren't bothered about getting a brand new car you could take one of them above your pay grade then change it whenever you wanted - was so lucky!

lovely seeing some great cars on the lists, envious of the guys who've had TVRs and Cobras

Oh Yes! :D Believe the hype, these things are absolutely awesome. It's everything I'd hoped and more to be honest, wish I could have been able to afford one years ago.
They were cheaper years ago :)
I know, But I didn't have the money available then! :) They bottomed out at around 70k about 18 months ago and prices have not stopped rising since then. Seriously reckon mine is worth 15k more already but there's no way I'll be selling, I bought this car because I've always wanted one and now I'm going to enjoy it for a while. The investment part really is just a (big) bonus. :D

I never went that far with bikes but it was all about Diamond back, PK Rippers and Haro Freestylers in my day......

Still have the Haro frame with my daughter and she has a contemporary Ripper i.e. not looptail. Will have to get that frame back I think.....?
